Purchased 2 new additions for my tank today. Copperband Butterfly and an Anthias (was supposed to be one of the peaceful variety....not so much), to go along with the Ocellaris Clown, 2 Bangii Cardinals and 2 Green Chromis (trading them in soon). He hid for an hour or so in the rocks and then ventured out like I figured he would. The copperband is wonderful....never hid and started picking around for food within minutes so I think he is going to be fine. Long story short...dinnertime came around and, we'll call him, "Attitude" the Anthias, is a holy terror. He chased EVERYONE around, including the butterfly who is twice his size to the point that it is turning around and flaring it's spines at him. Would it be wise to net him tomorrow and take him back to LFS? He is calming down a little and minding his business for the most part but still going after them when he gets close to them. I just don't want everyone else in the tank to get stressed to the point they get sick when I could possibly trade in for something more peaceful, like the white tail bristletooth tang I have my eye on
